MNF Betting Trends: Chargers vs. Jaguars
The San Diego Chargers opened as a 3 point favorite at the market-setting Cris sportsbook and, according to Sports Insights’ NFL Betting Trends, is currently receiving 72% of all spread bets. Despite this lop-sided betting percentage, the line remained at -3 as of Monday afternoon.
Although the line appears unchanged from the time it opened, there has actually been significant action on this game. A look at the line movement chart from Pinnacle shows that an early steam move on Jacksonville moved the line all the way down to 1.5 before the public pushed it back up to 3.
A majority of the market-setting books are offering this game at -3, however, there are a number of books who have moved their line to 3.5 including Sports Interaction (SIA) and Carib Sports. Those half points are exceptionally significant when dealing with a key number like three, and once again exemplifies the importance of shopping for the best line.
